List of mosques in Cambodia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of mosques in Cambodia.

The construction of mosques in Cambodia itself has been documented since the time of the Islamic community Chams in Cambodia, until who escaped the ethnic cleansing by the Khmer Rouge.[1] Because of that, they mostly hide along the Mekong River.[2] Most of the mosques during the Khmer Rouge era were converted into pig pens, as a form of Islamophobia in Cambodia.[3]
